2. 2023 Market Vendor Application

   Market vendors have the opportunity to join our signature events. To participate as a market vendor, your business must fit into one of these three categories:

   • Grower/Producer/Food – Includes growers and producers selling fresh produce, garden plants, potted herbs, cut flowers, seeds, honey, roasted chilies, frozen meats, breads, and ‘homemade’ foods. ‘Homemade’ food items must be prepared in a commercially licensed kitchen per state and county health regulations unless you’re selling under the Cottage Food Act. A copy of the license must be posted at the booth or available upon request. The State Health Department has regulations for ‘prepared food’, which includes roasted chilies. Perishables must be held at certain required temperatures with refrigeration or heat. Samples of fresh produce or other food items must follow food safety guidelines to protect customers as well as yourselves. If you have questions about those regulations, contact the Weld County Health Department at 970-304-6420. Vendors must follow Department of Agriculture guidelines for method of sale related to weights and measures. State or federal regulations require processed foods including jams, pickles, canned beans or other vegetables to comply with FDA labeling regulations. Eggs may be sold if the vendor has a licensed facility. There may be exceptions, so contact the Weld County Health Department or the CO Department of Agriculture for more information. If you wish to serve ready to eat, non-factory packaged food at Frederick events you must have a permit from the Weld County Health Dept. The permit must be displayed at your booth. To be classified as a grower/producer at least 75% of the products available at your booth must be grown/produced by you. This category excludes food trucks. Food trucks must complete the food vendor application to participate in Frederick events. 
   • Artisans/Crafters – Includes original handcrafted items personally created by you, the vendor. Crafts need to be preapproved. Acceptable crafts include fresh/dried flower arrangements, woodworking, garden sculptures, quilts, clothing, crochet/knitting, soaps, etc. Vendors using raw materials they produce (i.e. wool from your own animals) may qualify to sell as a grower/producer. Items not allowed include artificial flower arrangements, paint-by-number, etc. Resale and secondhand items are not allowed. 
   • Non-Profit Groups – Non-profits must abide by all event rules and regulations and may not sell any items that do not fit within the two categories listed above.

   Complete this application to be considered for participation as a market vendor. PLEASE DO NOT SEND PAYMENT UNTIL YOU HAVE BEEN CONTACTED FOR CONFIRMATION OF ACCEPTANCE.
